Medium high heat absolutely blackened my sprouts in five minutes. I’d suggest going with medium heat for 6 or 7 minutes instead.
Cauliflower is my most hated. Brussels are a favorite.
Why the black host?
what’re the best methods for discarding the trimmings & loose leaves other than composting?
Definitely will make this!
Fish sauce!!! Would not have gone there. Gotta try it.
Creamy and tender in the inside 🤣 lmfao 🤣 on this 2
She took off too much off the bottom!!!!
Perfect dish
Delicious!
Love how she taps the knife. I thought I was the only person that did that… She's my people
Hands down the best way I have ever personally made. Definitely give this method a try.
god these friggin things are SOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOODD. I cant' get enough with just S&P and parm on top BOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMB.
I can never succeed to get the recipe, ugh
They didn't cook their brussel sprouts long enough, they would be soggy and soft on the inside, yuck one of the first fails I've ever seen on this recipe
No wonder yanks are absolutley huge… you've taken a vegetable with hardly any calories and cooked it with a gallon of oil and you probably still think its healthy…. myyyyyy gawwwwwwwd.
I have done this and the brussle sprouts turned out so very delish
OMG…this recipe has saved me so much time and taste sooooo good. I couldn't believe 10 was all I needed. My hubby even ate them which speaks volumes. Thanks so much😀
I used this method to cook mine in a cast iron pan..they were amazing😋🥰..nice char on them, I used less oil and added small cubes of ham..😋 marie from 🇨🇦
Did a maple syrup and bacon version. It didn't serve four, only one. Can't wait to try other versions. Thanks for showing that brussels sprouts can be so delicious!
I Made it for thanksgiving and it was delicious! So simple. I didn’t have the Fresno chili so I just used chili pepper flakes.
Delicious…made ours with bacon and balsamic…however, it does splatter pretty substantially. Makes a mess, but worth it.
SO THE BEST BRUSSELS SPROUTS ARE DEEP FRIED, LOL GOOD TO KNOW
This dish was fantastic! My family loved it. Thank you
I made this last night but I wish they had said the size of the pan or at least the quantity of Brussels sprouts. I count 48 halves in this pan, and I think it must be a 12" pan because I used a 10" pan (don't know how many sprouts), and it came out too oily. I agree that this recipe is fried instead of roasted. I used cashews instead of peanuts because that's what I had on hand and I used yuzu juice instead of lime because I do not have any ripe limes on my tree at the moment. I do have lots of mint in the yard, however.
I need bacon with my Brussels sprouts
Beautiful !
I always ate my vegetables as kid; even the dreaded boiled to sh!t Brussels Sprouts. I grew up eating cabbage and pork soup so I guess I was used to the bitter cabbagey vegetal taste. Fast forward to when people started browning and roasting vegetables properly and I grew to love my veggies even more now. I'm a big fan of these Skillet Roasted Brussels especially with some crispy bacon, I could munch on a whole bowl to myself.
Wow what a great recipe. Can't wait to try it out, even though I love Brussel Sprouts anyway.
Brussels Sprouts are my favorite vegetable. Thank you for another great recipe using them!
Looks good, but lost me on the fish sauce.
"Chile"
i watched a cooking show once where a lady went on and on about how she loved brussel sprouts, cooked them drenched in butter, then at the end when she tried one she gagged and tried to hide it behind a smile and they cut to commercial
I have to say, while this preparation looks good, it ain't roasting, it's frying.
When you cook food in that ratio of fat/oil to vegetable, it's NOT roasting.
And using EVOO for "medium-high" heat cooking, is a waste of money. I just use vegetable, or better yet, peanut oil. (I don't have any food allergies, and I've never met anyone who has a genuine, medically proven, allergy to peanut oil).
The taste is just as good, and only a snobbish "celebrity chef", or one of the home cook wannabe/posers, would waste money just to impress others, when the taste isn't different enough to justify the cost.
i love brussels sprouts, please send more of them up north if you dont like them
Awesome recipe on one of my very favorite veggies
My favorite is oven roasted with a honey saracha sauce. But these look awesome as well.
I add Lemon and Butter and cook it like this too
One of the main reasons Brussel sprouts were so disliked was the cooking method too often used – boiled to death. Over cooking any member of the cabbage family brings out flavor compounds best kept hidden! We've become better informed. My mother knew when to quit cooking the little cabbages and I've always liked them. Too many school cafeterias over cooked them and children learned to hate them.
I'll stick with most hated !
I went my while life never even trying Brussel Sprouts because I grew up believing all of the rhetoric around then being horrible. Then about 10 months ago I decided to try therm while at a buffet. Fell in love with them immediatly and they were simply streamed.
Thank you for sharing this recipe.
Ever since Dan made the video for pan roasting them I have been eating them like candy. Glad to see this video, but hard to improve what Dan did. I make the maple syrup and smoked almond version 2-3 times a week.
I love her she my favorite person on here .
Ooo looks great. One thing about Brussel sprouts. They are best if harvested after the first frost.
"You put the balm on? Who told you to put the balm on? I didn't tell you to put the balm on. Why'd you put the balm on? You haven't even been to see the doctor. If you're gonna put a balm on, let a doctor put a balm on."
Tried this, Great. Thank you for the recipe.
I steam all veges and NEVER add fat or seasoning. why eat veggies if your gonna add fat?
Can this be done with broccoli too?
